7.6 Allowing callers to
leave private messages
(mailbox)
This unit provides 2 mailboxes (mailboxes 1 and
2) for recording voice messages. Callers using a
touch tone phone can leave a message in a
specific mailbox by entering a mailbox number.
Callers who use rotary phones or do not specify
a mailbox can leave messages in the common
memory. Also, passwords can be assigned to
mailboxes 1 and 2. This is useful if you share the
unit with other people, because only the person
who knows the mailbox password can listen to
messages in a mailbox.
7.6.1 To use a mailbox
1 Record your TAM/FAX greeting message
(page 51).
Sample message: “This is (your name). We
are unable to answer right now. To send a
fax, start transmission. To leave a message,
speak after the beep. To leave a private
message, press
{*}
and the desired
mailbox number
{
1
}
or
{
2
}
. Thank you.”
L If you cannot complete your TAM/FAX
greeting message within 16 seconds, you
can choose 60 seconds for your
TAM/FAX greeting message (feature #54,
page 63).
2 Record your mailbox greeting message if
necessary (page 56).
3 Change the password for mailboxes 1 and 2,
if necessary.
